Re: All Change in the Middle East?
Think about this. For months now the biden admin was trying to force a cease fire down Israel's throat which would have left hezbollah at new their full strength. But instead, Israel blew up their pagers, the ultimate, literal "in your face" if there ever was one, killed their top commander, and now with syria in meltdown status hezbollah is all but done in.

It's only been 21 years since the last time the problems of the Middle East were going to be solved by military force, so why not try it again? I'll bet you were a big fan of the Iraq invasion.

Proving again that you know Nothing about me.
Did you ever even watch it? It was a satire about the inflexibility and path to destruction that could possibly happen, not about "gung ho types" .

It's always interesting how you avoid the subject on anything that doesn't fit your simplistic worldview - eg deafening silence on Trump's plans for Ukraine.
Poor old Plod. Came back for a bit of gloating about the election, and now you're stuck because you can't bear to lose face.
Re: All Change in the Middle East?
What's YOUR plan for Ukraine?
As for having a simplistic world view, I'm just dumbing it down for the audience here.
Re: All Change in the Middle East?
Why the fuck would I have a plan? You are the one who is claiming to be some kind of expert in geo-political strategy, yet you have nothing of substance to say on the reported plans of the incoming President. All we get is these pathetic evasions. What a phoney.
